Post-Game Talk: 3-0 win

[ScottyMascotty]

weird how first line have positive individual defense
but way negative overall team defense, gustavs only one w/ individual defense just slightly bad, why the huge negative?

McDavid line. That's why QoC/QoT adjusted stats show better ratings

I have a Canadian buddy who is a huge Oilers fan. He has basically stopped communicating with me over this.
These people are so entitled and salty. I hope we sweep them. It’s ridiculous.

Good to see @Gentle Man made it to the game. Get him more lego's!

That lego really did give me an ouch


Paul made a great adjustment on the fly with Lousty Barky and Reino to close it out.

I don't mind rolling that out at all

ERod Benny Chuck
Verhaeghe Lundy Tank clears the rest of their lineup

We can't defend their nuke line. We have to have to get the puck on their end and kill the shift

 

[Ratsreign]

Holy shit he actually got that? He's now got the two best saves in the playoffs.

I wasn’t sure, I assumed he had to have shot it high.

 

[zeroG]

Is Tkachuk injured again? He only played just over 13 minutes

It may simply be that Barkov had the mcjesus matchup and the oil played their stacked line every other shift starting late in 2nd.

 

[Ratsreign]

How was this not a penalty? With all the other shit they called?

It’s friggin hilarious is always “a taste of their own medecine”
Justifies all...don’t you know

 

[Mellanby27]

Three more.

 

[Ratsreign]

Meh, I don't have a problem with that. Good job by Bennett trying to sell it though. A+ for effort.

Where was the puck? I didn’t see it there.
A collision like Benny had with McDavid, I suppose it was.

Also punched Tkachuk in the mouth during a line change. Difference is we aren’t crying about it for 2 weeks.

Counterpoint, he's a good defensive player who gets into position to clear often, so he fails often.

Eggblad does not deserve you.

Come at me Bro!

3 more to go Panthers fans! Awesome effort despite the refs being on the Oilers side.

There is no refs conspiracy, it was a pure Bussiness win. Only when we loose, is the refs fault.

 

[Two4Fighting]

They didn't play awful, they weathered the storm and came out on top. They knew the Oilers were going to go full on offense.

You guys need to rewatch the game, without the emotion of being live. You will see a different game, a Managed Chaos type of games, we were playing against freaking Jesus McDavid, + Draisaitl, do you really guys expect us, to be well composed and organized? It will be like this the rest of the games, but we will be better.
Bob was fantastic, but it was a team win, no doubt.

Kid should've gone to the game in a lego cast

 

[Two4Fighting]

Oilers can suck my ass

Dayummmm!..! That is a lot of people, my guy.

 

[Idiot Stick]

 

[iam76]

I jumped out of my seat at the game and yelled “that’s boarding!!”. Literally drove his face into the glass and no call, but the refs were on our side, ok lmao

It's not as bad as the Bennett cross check calm down chief

 

[wampa13jku]

This guy as usual, trade him north, the criminal organization known as the Panthers dont deserve nice things like this!

Reddit in shambles (are they ever not in shambles?) on 32 thoughts they talk about teams looking for snarl at the draft combine.

 

[FrolikFan67]

I’d like to think we won’t lose 4 of the next 5, and I’d really like to think we won’t lose the next 4 straight, so if the oilers want to take this series it’d almost surely have to be in 7 games. Would still require us to lose 4 of the next 6, which I wouldn’t say is necessarily likely but certainly possible. About 75% of all game 1 finals winners end up winning it all, 70% if you look at the past 20 years, and apparently close to 85% if it’s done on home ice so it’s all promising statistically but that’s why the games are played and they have wayyy too much game breaking talent is be careless or take anything easy. I’ll be nervous until this is all done. For now, it’s all numbers on a paper. They need to finish the job and I do expect Edmonton to come out and tie it tomorrow but man would that be huge if we can find a way to take game 2 as well

One thing that's baffling is the slow starts. It's been literally every game these playoffs the same, the first period is always the worst. One of those things that just doesn't make sense. Same with them being a better road team since last playoffs.

Record wise there is not a huge discrepancy, but I just like the simpler game they play on the road.

When we played the Rags, we could play well and they could have a poor game, but they could still win. Because shesterkin could win it. Same with Boston and Tampa.

Oilers don’t have the goalie factor to counter with. They just don’t. They’re not that strong in the most important position in hockey.

McDrai just won’t get it done without a G. Just like Austin and Mitch won’t either. And some good D. Just the way the game of hockey goes, because the puck is faster than even McD.

 

[Idiot Stick]

its only 1-0, plenty of hockey to be played, i really hope they treat monday as an elimination game
going up 2-0 is huge, and we play better on the road

 

[TotalHomer]

Yeah the record is almost the same, although it's a small sample. But visually they look clearly worse IMO, they should stick to the simpler game plan at home like they do on the road.
